In the newly created role, Lisa will facilitate the ongoing execution of the company’s strategy and corporate development in the United Kingdom.

PensionBee recently announced the achievement of ongoing Adjusted EBITDA profitability in its United Kingdom business and its expansion to the United States, with Romi Savova, Group Chief Executive Officer, now dividing her time between both continents in line with the Company’s ambition to create two geographic operations of equal importance.

Romi Savova, PensionBee Group CEO, said: “With her wealth of experience at PensionBee and in previous roles, I am delighted to see Lisa taking on deeper responsibilities in our UK business.

“We continue on our mission to build pension confidence so that millions of UK savers can enjoy a happy retirement. Lisa will play a key role in our next stage of profitable growth and corporate development in our home market.”

Lisa Picardo, PensionBee Chief Business Officer UK, added: “Having recently achieved ongoing Adjusted EBITDA profitability, it’s an exciting time for PensionBee to continue growing its market share and presence in the UK.
